Full Day Warsaw Tour – 6 hours
During this nostalgic panoramic city tour you will enjoy a walking tour passing by the Castle Square, King Sigismund's Column,
St. John's Cathedral, the Old Town Market Square and the Barbican. The Old Town (originally built in 14th and 15th centuries,
totally destroyed during WWII and carefully raised from the ruins between 1945-1955) currently is listed at UNESCO World
Heritage, but it is also a heart of the city, full of galleries, cafés and restaurants and with one of the symbols of Warsaw - Royal
Castle.

Full Day Pendolino, Krakow & Salt Mines Tour – 14 hours
Take the sites in at Krakow by seeing the Old Town area within the Planty greenbelt - an excellently preserved medieval city,
St. Mary’s Church with the famous wooden altar, the Town Hall Tower, the Cloth Hall, the ”Wierzynek” restaurant and the
burgher houses, Wawel hill - dominated by the Cathedral, the Castle and the defense towers. You will visit Wieliczka Salt
Mines, a unique venue full of marvelous chambers excavated and sculpted in rock salt, listed at UNESCO World Heritage, world
class attraction, only two places of this kind are available all over the world, one in Austria, one next to Krakow. This tour
includes the most beautiful chambers with St. Kinga Chapel, the biggest mine chapel in the world.

ITB Fire Testing Laboratory Tour in Pionki
ITB is offering a complimentary tour for the first 25 registrants that sign up. The tour is an opportunity for Fire Safety Experts
to gain firsthand experience in fire testing of various building elements. This event will help understanding the fire
requirements given in prescriptive codes, and allow to “touch” what does the required indexes really stand for. ITB
representatives during the tour will guide participants through various methods, ranging from small “desktop” scale to some
of the world’s largest furnaces, sharing their experience and observations. ITB employees are also fire engineers, researchers
and practitioners in computational analysis, who can share a very unique point of view on the fire safety built on practical
experience in both prescriptive and performance side of our field.
For more information click here. Spaces are limited and will fill up quickly, don’t forget to make your selection during
registration.

Competency and Credentialing Workshop
The SFPE Subcommittee for Professional Competency and Credentialing is responsible for evaluating minimum occupational
competency standards and licensing and credentialing criteria for fire protection engineers in parts of the world that do not
presently recognize and/or use the U.S. engineering licensure examination. The Subcommittee is in the process of developing
a document that will define the minimum core competencies and criteria for a fire safety engineer that can be widely adopted
worldwide. The Subcommittee will be holding a workshop to solicit feedback on the development of this core competencies
document.
There is no cost to participants, but registration is required.
